HAM AND CHEESE ARANCINI (ITALIAN FRIED RICE BALLS)



Ham and Cheese Arancini (Italian Fried Rice Balls) image

Yummy, comforting deep-fried rice balls filled with ham and onion, stuffed with melty, gooey cheese! I came up with these tasty little morsels after having something similar at a tapas restaurant in my hometown. Sadly, that restaurant closed its doors, so I was forced to recreate my favorite dish. *I have made these with havarti and swiss cheeses instead of the cheddar: all are equally good!* NOTE: After reading the review, please note: You definitely want to use rice that is somewhat sticky. Do not use leftover fluffy rice that has had the starch rinsed off as they will not hold together well.

Categories     Ham

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 eggs
2 1/2 cups cooked rice
1/4-1/2 cup ham, finely diced

1/4 cup onion, minced

3 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese (cut into small cubes)
oil, for deep-frying
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup flour, for coating
1 cup dry breadcrumbs or 1 cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Saute onion in 1 T butter over medium heat until translucent and beginning to brown. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • In a bowl lightly beat 2 eggs. Stir in cooked rice, ham, melted butter, Parmesan cheese, sauteed onion, seasoned salt, garlic salt, parsley and pepper.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Roll into 1-1/2-inch balls.and press a cheese cube into each ball, reshaping around the cheese.(I have used havarti and swiss in place of the cheddar with fantastic results!).
  • Place the flour into a small bowl. Whisk 2 eggs in a second small bowl. Place the dry breadcrumbs in a third small bowl.
  • Dip each ball into flour, then into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs.
  • Heat oil to 375 degrees, then fry rice balls until golden brown (about 4 minutes). You can also shallow fry them in oil, turning to brown.

SIMPLE HAM (OR PORK) FRIED RICE W/SESAME OIL NO WOK NEEDED



Simple Ham (Or Pork) Fried Rice W/Sesame Oil No Wok Needed image

This is NOT one of the many fried rice recipes that claim to taste just like your local Chinese restaurant. This is just a very tasty, very simple, one skillet fried rice that we have been making for years. The main differences from other recipes seem to be that we use sesame oil to fry the rice, and we do not add soy sauce while cooking. I'm also not going to tell you that you have to let the rice cool before frying. If you can, great, if not, it really doesn't make that big of a difference in this recipe. This is a one-skillet recipe, you do not need to put things in and take them out. It's so much easier this way. I am including pictures on how we scramble the egg in the same pan, I just love this trick! One last suggestion, have everything ready to go when you start, as it comes together very quickly once you start cooking. We always double the batch, my husband mans one skillet and I take the other. Please note, we have done our best to give accurate ingredient amounts, oil may need adjusted depending on your rice. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons sesame oil (may need a splash more to completely coat rice)
1/2 cup sweet onion (finely chopped)
1/2 cup carrot (finely cubed or medium shredded)
1 cup cooked ham (finely cubed) or 1 cup Chinese barbecue pork (finely cubed)
3 cups cooked white rice

  • Add sweet onion and carrots. Cook until the carrots are tender, about two minutes.
  • Add the cooked ham (or pork) and combine well.
  • Add the rice, using a wooden spatula or spoon to separate the rice. Cook until the rice is well coated with the oil, adding a splash more oil if needed, but don't over do it or rice will come out oily.
  • Push the rice mixture to the sides of the pan, leaving the center of the pan open to cook the egg.
  • Pour in the beaten egg, cook in the center of the pan until well scrambled. Once the egg is cooked, stir in with the rice mixture.

Tips:

  • Prep all ingredients in advance: Make sure all ingredients are measured, chopped or sliced before you start cooking. This will help save time and ensure even cooking.
  • Cook rice one day in advance: Day-old rice is best for fried rice, as it's less likely to clump together.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the rice from sticking. If you don't have one, make sure to grease the pan well before adding the rice.
  • Use high heat and stir continuously: High heat is essential for getting that perfect "wok hei" flavor in your fried rice. Be sure to stir the rice constantly, so that all the grains are evenly heated.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Adding too much rice to the pan will cause it to steam instead of fry. Cook the rice in batches if necessary.
  • Add cooked meat and vegetables last: This will prevent them from overcooking.
  • Season to taste: Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and other seasonings to taste. Be careful not to over-season, as the rice can easily become too salty or too sweet.
  • Garnish with scallions and cilantro: These herbs add a nice pop of color and flavor to the fried rice.
